Howls in the Moonlight

Howls in the Moonlight Cover Refresh

It’s been almost a decade, so I figured it was time for a refresh of my Howls in the Moonlight cover! This is my first book, and after re-reading it, I’ve realized how much my writing has changed–especially compared to my latest YA series. This book was supposed to be the first in a series of standalone stories, but alas, the series has been on the back burner for a very long time now. I still planned on it being on the back burner, but after re-visiting these characters, I’m rethinking those plans! If I do, I’ll probably refresh Howls in the Moonlight right before releasing Chase and Summer’s book.

Teaser Tuesday!

One week left until Wolf Claimed’s release, and I am so excited for it! Here’s one last teaser from Jane’s POV and someone willing to offer her something that she thought she wanted more than anything.

When everyone keeps telling you that witches and werewolves don’t belong together, you prove them wrong.

Teaser Tuesday Fun!

Hi everyone! Time for an update!

Wow, it’s been a busy month! The summer has been gorgeous, and even with all the heat advisories, I’m glad to see sun and not have to wear sweaters and pants in the summer. The kids are having fun in camps, and I’ve been busy learning more about to find readers for my books!

And I thought writing the book was the hard part…

If you haven’t found me yet, in addition to my Facebook Author Page, I now have Instagram and TikTok accounts. You can find the links on the right bar. I’ve also started posting graphics for Teaser Tuesdays (as you can see above!). I have to admit that making TikTok videos are pretty fun!

I also joined Booksprout and received my first ARC review for Wolf Claimed through the site, and I’m thrilled with the positive feedback! I’m counting down the days for release day!

Preorder Now Available For Wolf Claimed

I’m so excited that Wolf Claimed is officially up for preorder on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6S73MPR

You can preorder or add to your wishlist to be ready to read when Wolf Claimed gets released on Tuesday, August 23, 2022!

With this book, Jane and Gray’s duet is officially complete, but you won’t have to say good-bye to them forever! Liz and Ryken’s duet is next in my Andersen Grimm Academy of Elites series, and Jane and Gray will be present as secondary characters as you get to read about Liz and Ryken’s side of the events that happen in the first two books of the series!

Here’s the official synopsis:

Being in the middle of a supernatural war was not her plan…

All Jane wanted to do was to fly under the radar in her senior year. Instead, werewolves, witches, mages, and all sorts of other supernaturals are focused on her. Some want her friendship, and the others? Well, some want her killed.

Keeping his Mate safe while trying to be the perfect guy isn’t easy…

Gray’s determined to keep his Mate safe, but supernatural enemies keep getting in his way. He can’t risk scaring her away and losing her by unleashing his full werewolf abilities. There’s no way Jane would ever claim Gray and his wolf as hers if he showed her the real Gray…right?

Facebook Author Page Now Live!

It’s official: I have a Facebook Author page! I officially hit publish today on it even though it says it was created in Nov 2012! So…apparently it took me almost 10 years to make a Facebook Author page.

And I thought publishing a book took a long time.

Anyway, stop by and like if you get the chance! I’m hoping to at least post monthly updates, but who knows? It did take me 9.5 years to get the first post up…

Here it is: https://www.facebook.com/Ellie-Parin-411603685579340/

Seventeen-year old Jane wants to finish up her senior year and be as invisible as possible—she’s even been working on a spell to literally do so! When a fellow supernatural orphan that was also raised human joins the academy and becomes the target of bullies, it’s deja vu for Jane. Forget being invisible! It’s time for Jane to show her bullies who’s really the strongest witch in the academy.

He just wants her…

When an unwanted surprise joins the academy, he’s shocked to find out that he’s only known a half-truth his entire life. Now, nothing will stand in his way to claim the other half of his soul. Well, nothing except Jane.

Come join Jane, Gray, and their friends in this young adult, supernatural series filled with friendship and romance as they journey to discover who they are and where they belong.

He knows what he was born to be.

Seventeen-year old Kesan is both an illegitimate prince and a rare golemist–an Elemage that can call golems of fire, water, earth, and air. However, instead of accepting his status and honing his gifts, he’d rather live his life as a normal villager, spending his days with Isa, the girl he loves.

Now he must choose who he is meant to be. 

When a malevolent spirit gives Isa what she wants most, Kesan will have to call upon the two things he’d rather deny to save his village and all he loves.

Word count: ~24,300 (novella)

“Howls in the Moonlight” Published as a Kindle Ebook!

My first book in the Howls in the Night trilogy is out and available as a Kindle Ebook here!

Belle Knight isn’t your typical werewolf. She’s stronger and faster and can kick ass just as well as she can cook. 

And as a chef, her meals are amazing. 

Only one problem: in her quest to strengthen her inner wolf and protect those she loves, she’s forgotten what it’s like to view life as a normal human. However, when Max Greyson walks into her life, being a human doesn’t seem half as bad anymore. 

In fact, hiding her werewolf side at the moment isn’t a bad idea since she and her pack are being targeted by Hunters. It’s a good thing she has Max to help her fight her ruthless enemies. 

Max just has to make sure the woman he’s falling for doesn’t find out that he’s the Hunter sent to destroy her.
